https://www.tomsguide.com/phones/apple-airtag-2-review It’s been nearly five years since Apple first launched the AirTag. True to form, Apple arrived late to the item tracker market—but has completely dominated it ever since. Before...

Running Ollama locally is straightforward: visit http://localhost:11434 and connect from your Python scripts or other tools. If you plan to expose your machine to the internet, though, you should add basic protections...

#WWDC23 Wishlist: What will #Apple do with #ChatGPT? Will it include some privacy ready on-device GANs? Or will it be another tied up with #Microsoft like they did 25 years...
Reminder: Don’t blindly paste content into #AI #Chatbot, particularly commercially sensitive information. techcrunch.com/2023/05/02/dai…
How can you stop #SBF using Signal or other encrypted chats without locking him up? cointelegraph.com/news/us-prosec…
Permissioned, Private and Public might seem as old as “LAN, WAN and Internet” when we look back a decade or two from now. #blockchain
After 3 years or so of using #Brave browser, saved me about 23 hours just from saving ads download time. You won’t even notice it. I have very fast internet...
Not ignoring the #privacy issue as such. But what do you think happens when you type out your search request on #Google to get instant suggestions? Of course they are...
Many apps in China use the auto paste from clipboard when you open the app more like an local or lazy API. Maybe #iOS16 will force them to stop spying...

Somehow I am not comfortable with #ElonMusk having full visual and audio access right into my home. Does he seem like someone who will respect user #privacy? I don’t want...
@bryce Ad-based business models are not going away any time soon. Apple only tried to kill without-consent-tracking on their own ecosystem. Too early to tell if advertisers can still find...
As if US companies don’t collect and have access to user personal data from other countries they operate in. Is this really a #privacy issue or just politics? buzzfeednews.com/article/emilyb…
Hypocrisy? $20B by 2025 is not a lot for #Apple. It’s not even a lot of money for #Facebook or #Google where their primary revenue are from ads. But how...

You.com, a privacy focused search engine having a big “sign-up” button on main page? Seriously? digitaltrends.com/features/you-d…
It’s really annoying that #whatsapp can just ban me and even the support option email just bounce right back. You just can’t rely on this as your primary contact tool....
Old trick. But still very useful. Won’t be long before OS will start limiting these, then we will have to all switch to linux. 🙂 Stop some software from calling...
Maybe I still don’t trust #Facebook or #Meta. They didn’t say about forever deleting facial recognition #AI models built since 2011. Just that users won’t have access to this feature...
#Apple shouldn’t have made 2FA so much easier. But then again, for those who will use this feature, they don’t really care much about #security anyway. makeuseof.com/use-apple-two-…
